Dear Ilya, Milk is liquid meat. Milk and meat contain the same powerful growth hormones. I happen to be a vegetarian. However, I cook for my children and wife and they occasionally eat red meat. The hormones in meat are rendered inactive by gastric enzymes. The hormones in milk survive digestion. I agree that references are critically important. Sometimes I POST things and do not include references but invite people who are interested to POST to me privately and I will call you or leave my phone number. :>) Robert Ilya wrote: > > Uhm,... and whom is the cow steak for?
